Innovation for Melbourne EAs with Gus Balbontin

Former Lonely Planet’s Executive Director and CTO Gus Balbontin will be a keynote speaker at our Melbourne Executive PA Summit on the 21st August. High energy and compelling, Gus spoke to our EAs last year at the Brisbane Summit and was a highlight for delegates and exhibitors alike.

Raised in the Argentinean Patagonia, Gus knew from the age of eight that he was going to travel the world. Fast forward to 2014; Gus completed an MBA, had spent countless hours on planes, progressed through a number of different roles within Lonely Planet and eventually led the company globally. The company went from books dominating the world of travel information to the internet and a mobile revolution few saw coming.

Gus is a big thinker who doesn’t let ‘life’s hurdles’ get in the way of big solutions. His knowledge and expertise in transformation and digital innovation is genuinely impressive, as he teaches his audience how to navigate the struggles and successes that even great brands in the world experience.

Gus Balbontin speaks to global audiences in their thousands and on the 21st August he will be in Melbourne talking to a select group of qualified EAs and PAs at the Executive PA Summit. Our Summits are a free day of professional development for a select group.
